Heroin Addiction Treatment

Heroin addiction is one of the most common addictions.
Addiction to Heroin is still a major addiction throughout the world and if you
want to escape your addiction or want to support someone beat their own
addiction this site has lots of useful and effective advice to do this.

I
also offer confidential tailor made treatment to help clients break their
addictive patterns, learn about themselves to understand why they used in the
first place, individualised relapse prevention strategies and long term aftercare
treatment to support you or someone you care for to move forward in their
recovery.

Why
is Heroin so addictive?

Heroin
is a powerful drug whose ability to ease pain and block out feelings makes it
very addictive. It does not change the world that an addict lives in but
does change how they feel within that world. All the pain, fear, anxiety is gone when they use heroin. It is so effective that heroin users will
continue to use when their health is deteriorating so badly, that their using
patterns may do long term and often permanent damage to their body. Those heroin addicts who inject the drug will often continue to inject despite their veins collapsing, their legs being amputated and the risk of infection, overdose and death.

Heroin
users can quickly gain tolerance of heroin and so need to take the substance
very regularly, often repeatedly during the day to deal with the effects of
withdrawing. These effects can be described as “doing a rattle” due to the way
they experience this pain. Heroin addiction can be totally cured but the patient needs to be supported to become free of heroin physically and also to access therapy to be free from the substance psychologically.

Addicts
of Heroin like all addicts are intelligent and sensitive but they have lost the
ability and self confidence to deal with the world around them and have learned
to retreat into this using behaviour. Therapy can help them to make long
lasting changes.

How
can therapy help break the cycle of heroin addiction forever?

Alongside
dedicated medication to deal with withdrawal an addict can break their
physical dependence on heroin. However,
to break their psychological dependence I can help you or a loved one change
how to deal with the world, how you feel about yourself and give you a sense
of direction in your life, a sense of purpose and give you the help you need
to live a fulfilling life.

Treatment
is not quick, but can be undertaken in a flexible way and so can be done remotely or face to face. I will offer a
realistic timeframe with realistic goals. The website has a range of the tools
and techniques to beat your heroin addiction. I will support you to learn and
use these tools plus others too as they become relevant to your needs. I will
help you move carefully through each phase of treatment such that you can
exit and live the life you want, able to deal with the complexity of living
without hiding from life but living life on life’s terms.

Dealing with Triggers, Cravings and Urges associated with Heroin addiction

Heroin treatment will include work to address triggers, cravings and urges as you learn to live without using. Treatment will give the knowledge and skill s of how best to manage all the common challenges which can result in lapse and relapse including tools to deal with Trigger, Cravings and how to deal with Urges.

Treatment for heroin can also include hypnosis to embed all the learning to help you take back control of any thoughts or feelings that could risk your recovery.

How
successful are these treatments?

I
have been working with people affected by addiction throughout my entire career
and have formally worked in the field in a variety of ways giving me experience of working with a range of people with a range of complex needs. I have worked in rehabs, secure units, psychiatric hospitals and within
community settings and have developed these techniques during that time to
meet the needs of my clients. Repeatedly clients have demonstrated a rapid
change in self esteem, a rapid change in their belief in their ability to cope
and this has been bourne out by their recovery. My work has been very
effective, to such an extent that some of my fellow professionals began as my
clients.

How
quickly can I fully recover?

A
common question in addiction treatment is how quickly can this all be solved.
Part of this is built on a behaviour of Instant Gratification which is a
central way of thinking in addiction.

One
mistaken assumption is that if you have had 10 years to active addiction then it
will take just as long to move away from this. I use the analogy of a hair cut
to explain how quickly addiction can be treated if you are willing to let the
treatment do its job. It can take years to grow your hair long but it only
takes seconds to snip those dead, lank bits of hair off revealing a new growth
and new look.

People
find their recoveries in their own time and at their own pace but some
demonstrate a very rapid recovery. The fastest these techniques have lead to a
client becoming a colleague is just under a year.
